BBQ Ribs 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM Ribs’ the title word in the Ribs, Rods and Rides Festival name refers to the tastiest component of the action-packed event. The rib cook-off will feature stiff competition between Tehama County Fire Departments and Casino Culinary teams for Rib Cook Off honors. They’ll all battle it out for the People’s Choice Award - which will be voted on by the spectators (tasters). Additionally, the fire depart- ment with the most votes will win a $500 Grant from the Rolling Hills Casino Community Development fund.../ and bragging rights for next year! Festival spectators will enjoy the all-you-can-eat tasting excitement for only $15, which includes tasting from over ten rib booths. There will also be a beer garden and interactive games, plus the Jack Daniels girls and a beer garden nearby. The Rib Cook-Off proceeds will benefit the Handi-Riders of Chico whose mission is to establish, maintain and operate therapeutic horseback rid- ing programs for handicapped and developmentally dis- abled persons.
